Marco was with three men the night he died, police said. Instead of taking him to a hospital, they drove around for hours before calling an ambulance, police said.

The men told police they didn't realize how badly hurt Marco was, police said. They thought he had just had too much to drink.

Marco's family said they want the men charged in the case. Police said the men might have been negligent, but their actions were not criminal.

Marco's family and friends said they have struggled to deal with his death. They said the main purpose of Monday night's memorial was a chance to support one another. They inflated balloons, wrote messages on them and released them to the sky. They also lit candles and told stories about Marco. At the end, they blew out the candles and said a prayer for Marco and his little boys.

"I dread the day I have to tell the kids their dad was murdered," Colon said. "I just wish I could tell them the people who did it are behind bars."
